Abstract
The purpose of this research is to evaluate the
current state of taxation of the digital economy and
project its contribution to the tax system in Ecuador.
A methodology of qualitative approach and
exploratory scope was used, through a comparative
matrix of Latin American countries, their BEPS
regulations and an analysis of the effectiveness of
the actions taken on taxes on the digital economy.
Statistical data was taken from Tax
Administrations, the Economic Commission for
Latin America and the Caribbean, the Inter-
American Center of Tax Administrations and the
KPMG Tax News Digital Economy Report. For the
projection of fiscal income, the Financial
Statements of multinational companies that do not
have headquarters in Ecuador were considered and
through simple regression the future collection was
estimated. The results showed that the projection of
digital taxes in Ecuador would be 200.27 million
dollars for the period 2022-2025, with 80%
corresponding to VAT. In addition, it was revealed
that there is a derivative collection not considered
as a product of the information provided by digital
companies, causing additional potential collection.
In the diagnosis of advances in international tax
matters in the Region, it is concluded that tax
regulations in Latin America respond to the tax
challenges of the digital economy on a global scale.
Keywords: Digital economy, collection, tax
